We characterized the reactive profile and site-specificity of this method using model peptides and proteins in vitro, and demonstrated the general utility for production of a nanobody-chemical probe conjugate without compromising its binding ability.Cationic triarylmethane dyes such as malachite green are aromatic xenobiotic compounds causing environmental pollution. The affinity between hazardous materials and biomolecules makes it important to understand the properties of such compounds. Accordingly, in this study, the possible molecular interaction between this pollutant and the human serum albumin (HSA) was investigated using a combination of molecular docking, molecular dynamic simulation and multi-spectroscopic approaches. The docking results illustrated that malachite green oxalate (MGO) could bind to some of the HSA amino acids with the estimated free energy = -32.93 kJ/mol. Further, the results of the dynamic simulation revealed that MGO had a steady interaction with the protein though increasing flexibility and decreasing the HSA compactness. These results were, therefore, in agreement with those obtained by spectroscopic techniques. The MGO concentration of 0.0005 mM could quench the HSA's intrinsic fluorescence by %16.88. The protein structural changes also revealed that the binding interaction of MGO-HSA was accompanied by an increase in the α-helix and a decrease in the β-sheet of the protein. Overall, this study indicated the suitable molecular modeling interaction of MGO and HSA.During the last two decades, the use of soil amendments has gained high attention due to their role in governing trace element biogeochemistry in the soil. Majority of the studies dealing with soil amendments focused on the soil-plant transfer of trace elements, their compartmentation inside the plants and associated toxic effects. However, there is comparatively limited data regarding the effects of soil amendments on trace-element-induced oxidative stress (variations in stress and tolerance parameters) in plants. Therefore, this review, for the first time, critically elucidates the broad and specific trends in literature data of stress, tolerance and growth parameters under co-application of trace elements and soil amendments. For this purpose, a total of 3120 plant response items from literature data were collected/analyzed. The meta-analysis revealed an overall decrease in stress parameters (reactive oxygen species, membrane damage and lipid peroxidation), while an increase in tolerance parameters (antioxidants) and growth parameters (pigment contents). However, these general trends vary greatly with respect to different types of amendments, trace elements, plant species, plant organs and exposure cultures. In addition, the trends also varied for different types of response items of stress, tolerance and growth parameters (e.g., POD vs CAT, H2O2 vs O2). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ldc203974-imt1b.html Manuscript critically discusses some mechanistic explanations for these general and specific trends in literature data. Finally, this review proposed key research gaps and important future perspectives. All the aspects discussed in this review have been strengthened with 23 Tables and 7 Figures. The research gaps and scientific queries established in this review based on meta-analysis of literature data will open new aspects of future research and discussion in the fields of ecotoxicology, stress physiology and remediation.Simultaneous exposure to multiple pollutants has received great concerns considering that the interactions between pollutants can alter the environment fate and bioavailability of pollutants with potentially deleterious effects. Graphene oxide (GO) has been widely used in many areas including environmental remediation, biology and agriculture. However, researchers have largely ignored the combined toxicity of GO with coexisting toxicants. Cis-bifenthrin (cis-BF), a typical synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, was frequently detected in the environment, which raised the possibility of interaction between cis-BF and GO. Our study investigated the toxic effects of cis-BF alone or combined with GO on the lipid homeostasis in Xenopus laevis. Tadpoles at 51 stage were exposed to cis-BF (0, 12, 60 and 300 ng/L) or in their combination with GO (0.1 mg/L) for 21 days. Coexposure to cis-BF and GO deteriorated the lipid homeostasis disruption in tadpoles. The up- or down-regulation of lipogenesis genes expression and enzymes activity were amplified in the coexposure groups. Furthermore, the presence of GO enhanced the deleterious impacts of cis-BF on the hepatic function in tadpoles. This study uniquely shows that GO promotes the lipotoxicity and hepatic function deficit caused by cis-BF exposure in frog.Residues of antiseptics and drugs have been ubiquitously detected in aquatic water-sediment systems, and are thus considered emerging contaminants that threaten our global environment. To investigate the potential risk of ibuprofen and triclocarban in sediment, effects of enzyme activity on the enantioselective degradation in sediment were investigated. Enantioselective fate of rac-ibuprofen was observed in sediment with R-enantiomer exhibiting preferential degradation. Enzyme evidence showed that high levels of triclocarban could significantly inhibit activities of catalase and urease activities in sediment, as well as increase the half-life of ibuprofen (from 5.8 d to 10.1 d). Cytotoxicity data suggested that cell growth processes were significantly affected by ibuprofen and triclocarban co-exposure, which was consistent with apoptosis results. Additionally, the expression of several proteins (Cyto-c, Nrf2, p62, Keap1, NQO1, and Pink1) were markedly induced upon exposure to ibuprofen in the presence of triclocarban. In conclusion, these findings illustrated that co-occurrence of ibuprofen and triclocarban residues have synergistic adverse effects to the environment and synergistically threaten human health.Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), a synthetic and widely used chemical, has aroused wide public concern due to its persistence, bioaccumulation, and potential toxicity. To investigate splenic atrophy induced by PFOA, male mice were exposed to 0, 0.4, 2, or 10 mg/kg/d PFOA for 28 d. Results demonstrated that spleen weight and relative spleen weight (RSW) decreased in the 2 and 10 mg/kg/d PFOA exposure groups. Iron levels in the spleen and serum were also reduced in all PFOA exposure groups. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) of 7 043 genes highlighted enrichment in cell cycle, autoimmunity, and anemia in the spleen. In addition, changes in the levels of hemoglobin, platelets, bilirubin, and heme oxygenase-1 were consistent with anemia. The ratio of total macrophages to M1 macrophages in the spleen, phagocytic ability of macrophages, and levels of cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 all increased, thus suggesting the occurrence of autoimmune disorder. Therefore, we concluded that overactivation of macrophages may be an important reason for splenic atrophy induced by PFOA exposure.
